8-5. AUTO VANE OPERATION
1. Horizontal vane
(1) Vane motor drive
These models are equipped with a stepping motor for the horizontal vane. The rotating direction, speed, and angle of
the motor are controlled by pulse signals (approximately 12 V) transmitted from indoor microprocessor.
(2) The horizontal vane angle and mode change as follows by pressing VANE CONTROL button.

(3) Positioning
To confirm the standard position, the vane moves until it touches the vane stopper. Then the vane is set to the
selected angle.
Confirming of standard position is performed in the following cases:
MS-GK24VA MS-GK30VAT
(a) When the operation starts or finishes (including timer operation).
(b) When the test run starts.
MS-GK36VAT
(a) When the power supply turns ON.
(b) When the operation starts or finishes (including timer operation).
(c) When the test run starts.
(d) When the vane control is changed AUTO to MANUAL (except SWING).
(e) When SWING is finished (including ECONO COOL).
(4) VANE AUTO ( ) mode
In VANE AUTO mode, the microprocessor automatically determines the vane angle to make the optimum room tem-
perature distribution.
Vane angle is fixed to Angle 1.
(7) SWING ( ) mode
By selecting SWING mode with VANE CONTROL button, the horizontal vane swings vertically. The remote controller
displays “ ”.
(8) ECONO COOL ( ) operation (ECONOmical operation)
When ECONO COOL button is pressed in COOL mode, set temperature is automatically set 2°C higher.
Also the horizontal vane swings in various cycles.
SWING operation makes you feel cooler than set temperature. So, even though the set temperature is higher, the
air conditioner can keep comfort. As a result, energy can be saved.
To cancel this operation, select a different mode or press one of the following buttons in ECONO COOL operation:
ECONO COOL, VANE CONTROL, LONG or POWERFUL COOL (
MS-GK24VA MS-GK30VAT
) button.
NOTE
: ECONO COOL operation does not work in COOL mode of “I FEEL CONTROL”.
(5) STOP (operation OFF) and ON TIMER standby
In the following cases, the horizontal vane returns to the closed position.
(a) When OPERATE/STOP (ON/OFF) (

(b) When the operation is stopped by the emergency operation.
(c) When ON TIMER is ON standby.
(6) Dew prevention
During COOL or DRY operation with the vane angle at Angle 4 or 5 when the compressor cumulative operation time
exceeds 1 hour, the vane angle automatically changes to Angle 1 for dew prevention.
(9) POWERFUL ( ) operation (
MS-GK24VA MS-GK30VAT
)
The air conditioner automatically adjusts the fan speed and the set temperature, and operates the POWERFUL mode.
The POWERFUL mode is cancelled automatically 15 minutes after operation starts. To cancel this operation manual-
ly, select a different mode or press one of the following buttons: POWERFUL, OPERATE/STOP (ON/OFF), ECONO
COOL, or FAN, SPEED CONTROL button.
